Abstract (English translation of the original text)
The following is an introduction to a low pressurization system for agricultural
irrigation based on the safe use of polyvinyl chloride piping at the terminal
side of the pipeline.
The combination of "the cut off of hydrostatic pressure using conventional
or new type automatic pressure reducing valves" and "the countermeasures
for water hammer pressure with airbags or safety valves" is proposed
as a pipeline pressure reduction system.
Furthermore, an inline pressure reduction system that reduces systematic
internal pressure in phases through a serial arrangement of new type automatic
pressure reducing valves is offered.
For details of this new type automatic pressure reducing valve, please
